With a wing span of about 5 1/2 feet (168cm) you would duck without thinking.

When up high they can glide 15 miles.
They have just started to breed in South Carolina again after years of decline. Based on what we have seen the numbers are pretty strong.
What a shot
Thanks Sherwood. We have seen quite a few recently.
How great is that, more terrific photo opportunities!
There have been plenty around lately, juveniles too so we know there are breeding here. I still have a full days worth of photographs to finish.
With luck I’ll have a few more in flights.
